Your notoriety is known to everyone.

Rogers kindly helped the Viscount brush the fallen snow off his shoulders, spoke words of comfort in a gentle tone, and then explained a few follow-up matters before letting him continue to help them arrange their guest rooms for tonight.

Fortunately, not all the attendants in the mansion died, but no one in the front yard was spared.

As for the vampire, after thoroughly confirming that the other person was really just a pure executor, and with his silent attitude, Rogers did not make any more attempts, and Alice gave the other person a decent Exit.

When the gods of the Bottomless Pit saw the end of tonight's main drama, they lost interest in paying attention. As the prompt box popped up, they withdrew their gaze one by one.

As a matter of course, the four of them moved into a spacious bedroom together.

The bed is the center of the entire bedroom. The bed is inlaid with luxurious wood carvings and surrounded by soft and gorgeous bed curtains.

Several people habitually took out brand-new bedding from the magic book and laid it out. After washing themselves one by one, they sat on the bed together and sorted out the results of their trip.

The most important one was Lilavina who was thrown beside the bed and tied tightly. Now this guy's value in the eyes of Luo Gesi was far more precious than the teleportation pendant.

Although he could not bring it back to Saint Helta, he still had a way as the Holy Son of the Bottomless Pit, which was to call loyal and convenient believers to take care of him for a period of time. This was why he chose to stabilize Gerson first. One of the reasons for Viscount.

Then the other party revealed a piece of news that a student of St. Helte had to pay attention to.

"Should we report it to the school immediately?" Alice asked tentatively.

"It's useless, it will only increase the other party's vigilance." Rogers shook his head and rejected.

Not to mention that the other party has not yet become the Holy Son of the Abyss of Disorder, nor to mention how powerful the hidden protection laid down by the gods is. I will only talk about the fact that after the school heard about this, if they went to the professional Pantheon to cooperate, what would it be like for him? It is also a huge hidden danger.

He gently rubbed his forehead and thought. There was no birth of the Son in the original plot. It could be said that the birth of the Son of Discord was simply the result of his butterfly instigation.

And he felt that he should have thought of this seemingly bizarre, but most likely event earlier.

Just like if he can find the grimoire belonging to the Bottomless Pit, why can't others encounter the creations of the Abyss of Chaos?

In addition, the most talented people are concentrated in the three major forces, and the blood of the royal family and the belief in the Pantheon will reduce the probability of the Son of Chaos Abyss being born from their forces.

"Such a simple elimination method, why didn't I think of it before..."

Logos fell back on the bed and exhaled a long breath. He suddenly felt that he had been paying too much attention to his own growth and had left the world behind.

"What elimination method?" Alice asked curiously, listening to Rogers' murmur.

Alina glanced sideways at her, and opened her mouth to give Rogers this explanation that she could figure out without much thought.

Then she lay down next to Luo Gesi, raised her hand and gently helped Luo Gesi wipe away the hair from his forehead, and said softly:

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We have survived so many things in the past safely, and saving the world shouldn't be a responsibility that needs to be placed on your shoulders."

Alice couldn't help but pursed her lips after listening to Alina's words, and slowly lay down beside Rogers without saying too much.

Lufia, who had been lying on the bed for a long time, felt the change in the bed. She just scratched her belly a few times and leaned against Erina's side out of habit.

"Don't think too much. Let's take a rest first. After finishing the chores tomorrow, we will go back to school. There is still some time before the exorcism night."

Luo Gesi said a few words of comfort in a relaxed tone, activated his magic power to extinguish the crystal chandelier, then pulled up the big soft quilt and said good night to the people around him.

Chapter 4 The Value of Death (k)

At dawn, the thin light shines through the tiny gaps at the bottom of the curtains and sprinkles weakly and finely on the floor in the house, signaling the arrival of a new day to the people in the bedroom.

"You hit my hair."

Alina's snow-white eyelashes trembled slightly, she stared directly at Luo Gesi with her amber eyes, and poked Luo Gesi's cheek a few times with her fingers.

"Oh..." Luo Gesi raised his head slightly and moved the hair under his head a few times. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Alina who was slowly sitting up.

Then he rubbed the side of his neck with his fingertips. After feeling a little moisture, he looked at Alina, who was combing her long hair with her fingers, with questioning eyes.

However, the other party just seemed to be unaware and ignored the probing message sent by Luo Gesi.

Following Alina's movements, Alice slowly opened her eyes, with a little bloodshot eyes still remaining. She had just closed her eyes not long ago, and spent most of last night thinking wildly about Alina's words last night. With.

"Hurry up, wash up and tidy up a little, it's time to get to work."

Rogers opened the quilt, got out of bed at the end of the bed, summoned the magic book, and took out the same printed paper from it. He looked at the messages written by the cultists on it and urged a few people aloud.

The four of them cleaned up quickly. During this period, Rogers also instructed Alice to specifically awaken the succubus Lilavina who had been tied up once.

Luo Gesi did not let the other party say too many words, but just explained that he did not have much ill intentions, but in order to protect the other party and for the common interests of both of them, he would secretly send the other party to his own territory.

At the same time, he did not forget his original intention and asked about the use of charm skills. This time Lilavina became very cooperative and took the initiative to offer a skill explanation volume called "Book of Charm".

After everything was cleared up, Lilavina also entered a peaceful "sleep" again, and several people took the succubus straight to the back garden of the Viscount's Mansion.

The plants in the winter garden maintain their strong vitality through magic, and with a thin layer of falling snow, they look unique.

However, Rogers was not in the mood to appreciate it too much. He led a few people to a rockery located in a corner, and three figures in black cloaks appeared from the gaps in the rockery.

The other three people all walked to Luo Gesi and bowed deeply. The leader among them was a believer named Luca who looked like he was about to enter middle age.

Viscount Gerson was basically a puppet in the hands of Rogers. If it hadn't been for his instructions last night, these cultists would not have been able to enter the house smoothly, and there was no need to be so cautious.

However, Rogers understood their occupational diseases to some extent and did not comment too much.

"Although there should be no problem with the restraints on this succubus, you'd better strengthen a few more layers of seals, especially to prevent people of the opposite sex below the silver level from approaching her. These are some things to note about succubi. Anyone transporting her should read it thoroughly, just in case.”

When Luo Gesi threw Lilavina beside Luca, he specially gave Luca a booklet, which was a summary of the essence of his research on succubus.

When he was reading in school, he once saw a story, the content of which was that a sealed succubus could charm the opposite sex and desperately try to "save" it just by relying on its own charm.

"Holy Son, please rest assured. I brought sealing props with me before I came, and I will carefully arrange the relevant manpower. After all, your will is the will of the gods on earth."

Luca rubbed his hands and said flatteringly, and then he chanted a magic spell, summoned a dark purple coffin covered with strange patterns, and quickly used the magic power to lock Lilavina inside.

According to him, this coffin can seal even a strong man who has just entered the gold level, and it is absolutely foolproof against a succubus who is not yet at the gold level.

At the same time, one of the requirements mentioned by Logos can be easily achieved, which is to suppress Lilavina's consciousness, so that Alice does not need to maintain the operation of the [Cage Special].

It’s just that Rogers was still not at ease about this. It wasn’t until Alina did a divination to confirm that she was fine, and because Rogers could easily determine the opponent’s position using the [Special Contract] as a guarantee, he didn’t add any more details. Lots of insurance.

"Is the Holy Son interested in succubi?" Luca rolled his eyes, bowed and rubbed his hands, and asked with a tentative smile.

"I'm not interested in succubi. It's just that the guy who will affect many of my plans is a succubus." Logos said sternly to prevent the other party from having any strange impressions.

Lucca's eyes swept over the girls surrounding Luo Gesi without leaving any trace, with a look of sudden realization on his face. He bowed hurriedly, the flattery on his face became more intense, and he said bluntly: "I understand." ! Understand! I’m the one who said too much!”

"What do you understand?" Luo Gesi frowned slightly. He always felt that the guy in front of him gave him a very improper feeling.

"The Holy Son is not interested in succubi!" Lucca repeated righteously.

Logos nodded slowly, reminding the other party not to spread gossip about this, and finally specifically told the high priest of the Pantheon that he would come to Gerson in the afternoon, so he had better start confronting other believers early. Don’t waste too much time on Lilavina’s transfer.

"Don't worry, we are professionals." Luca patted his chest and made a promise. Then before leaving, he and the other two people on his side bowed to Luo Gesi again: "May the glory of the Bottomless Pit shine forever."

When the words fell, Luca and the other three walked into the rockery with the coffin, escaped into a secret tunnel that appeared at an unknown time, and quickly disappeared from Luo Gesi's eyes.

Rogers looked up at the morning light in the sky, paused for a moment, then turned back to the mansion to find Viscount Gerson and talked about many matters.

In his eyes, this viscount wanted to die as soon as possible, but he also had his own considerations on how to ask the other person to die.

As time passed, the sun reached the middle of the sky, without any intention of tilting, and shone straightly on the earth.

The sun shines through the thin gaps in the clouds. It is no longer as passionate and unrestrained as in summer, but faint, with a kind of silence.

High Priest Farek also hurried over at this moment. When he arrived, the only people facing him were the saint who had conquered many evil creatures, the repentant Viscount Gerson, and the one who had been arrested and imprisoned in the viscount's mansion. , many magicians who were originally prepared to serve as sacrifices.

Because the sacrifice to summon the disaster was not carried out at all, and as the medium to summon the disaster, a bloody rune was respectfully presented by Viscount Gerson, who suddenly woke up.

All the high priest could do at this point was to record the cause and development of the incident and put on some symbolic scenes.

As for the trial of Viscount Gerson and the zombie disaster that almost broke out, as a high priest of the Pantheon, he did not want to get involved in such a thorny matter without permission, and readily handed it all over to the inspector sent by the royal family to supervise the operation of the "cleansing movement".

When Logos returned to St. Helta that night, the cultists spread the news of Viscount Gerson's suicide through the same printed paper.

According to rumors, Viscount Gerson was forced to death by the inspector who severely questioned him, and his only son, who was under the age of eighteen, also hastily ended his knight training at the home of a grand duke in the north and returned the next day. The territory is preparing for a knighthood ceremony.

"How to die is also a great philosophical proposition."

In the office on the top floor of the three-story wooden house with the door sign of "Rogers Club", Rogers stood by the window, facing the morning light, looking at the students practicing spell magic in the open space far below. Alina handed over the black tea, took a sip and spoke slowly.

If Viscount Gerson dies after being tried in court, it will be meaningless to Luo Gesi and the entire feudal aristocracy. However, if he can be forced to death by the supervisor, it will mean nothing to the other feudal aristocrats. It makes sense to everyone.

Luo Gesi allowed his death to be the prelude before the opening of "Midwinter", which was worthy of the noble status of this high-ranking noble.

"So is this your answer to my question that night? After choosing to go home, are you going to completely oppose His Majesty?"

Alina looked at Rogers' face that was filled with the steam of black tea. Although Rogers did not directly say that the death of Viscount Gerson was related to Rogers, when Rogers specifically told her about it, she He instantly understood Luo Gesi's intention.

The two of them are always like this. Many things don't need to be explained. By understanding each other's habits, they can understand what the other is thinking.

"The emperor once told me that midwinter was inevitable and asked me to think carefully about his proposal before then.

"I have also thought about your question, whether I should go home in the middle of winter. Procrastination may be a compromise, but the fundamental problem still exists.

"Then it's better to let this year's winter come more violently. No matter how cold it is, it will eventually pave the way for my next, inevitable New Year."

After speaking, Luo Gesi took another sip of black tea. He felt the rich sweetness brought by the slight bitterness. When it flowed down his throat, he turned around and asked Alina: "Did you add too much sugar this time? "

"Don't you like it?" Elena took the teacup and asked looking into Rogers' eyes.

"It would be great if you could make tea for me." Rogers shook his head slightly, thinking that changing the taste occasionally wouldn't be a bad thing.

"Then after you have thought about this great philosophical proposition, can I continue to make tea for you?" Alina placed the teacup on the desk next to her and continued to ask in an inexplicable tone.

"When did you notice it?" Rogers rubbed his chin, looked back at Alina, and asked curiously.

"I don't know since when, you have become more and more concerned about the identity behind you. You are not the kind of person who likes to live in uneasiness for a long time, so death is indeed of great value to you." Ellie Na replied with a chuckle.

Luo Gesi was silent. He had indeed thought about using death to put aside his current identity more than once so that he could freely express his many ideas.

But this is just an idea after all. At the very least, he has to wait for his younger brother or sister to appear after discussing with his father; and the magic academic community can be truly established to ensure that his epoch-making achievements are achieved; and in St. Helte Learn enough knowledge from it and ensure that Alice can complete her mission as a saint.

When he was promoted to Silver, he realized the value of his death to the ritual. If he could do it again when he was promoted to Gold, and dedicate all his achievements in changing the secular era and the magical era, the benefits would definitely be incomparable. imagination.

Just as he gave Viscount Gerson a meaningful death, how to make his own death more meaningful was a proposition that required more and more in-depth consideration for him.

"I may not necessarily choose this way, and it's still very early. Many things need to be pushed to completion, and then the time comes when I need to make a decision."

Logos shrugged and said that only when the expected achievements are truly achieved is when he needs to choose how to die and resurrect.

"Sooner or later you will make this choice. After all, you are an extremely greedy guy." Alina walked to Luo Gesi's side and watched side by side with him at the young students practicing spell magic in the distance.

"Is this a prophecy?" Rogers asked curiously.

"No, this is what I know about you." Alina shook her head in denial, and then her tone rarely took on a sigh: "These students of yours are so friendly to you, if they see you die, and then see you again The Holy Son of the Bottomless Pit must be a big blow to them."

"There is still a lot of time, I will make them strong enough. This is the outstanding fire of my school, and it is an achievement that I am proud of. It is not good to be too fragile.

"And my fate is not clear. Who knows whether I will inherit the family business and become the uncrowned king of the East in the future, or I will take root in Saint Helte and open a college named after me? My future death is far away from now. ,Too far."

Rogers held his hands on the window sill, and the cold winter wind stirred his silver hair, making it change with the fluctuation of the wind.

"You have changed a lot. If you were the Rogers Blade when I first met you, you would definitely have declared that you were going to die a violent death, instead of being so hesitant now."

Alina's snow-white hair was also lifted by the wind, fluttering in the air like wings, and she spoke in a brisk tone.

Dang Dang Dang——

There was a knock on the door of the office, and Lufia's voice also came: "I called Derek here, and he also sorted out and brought the files of students' credit changes in the club recently. .”

"Okay, let's not talk about the distant future. We must first deal with this difficult matter at the moment and find a way to find out the madman from the Chaos Abyss.

"One of the Holy Sons is enough." Luo Gesi straightened his collar slightly, spoke to Alina, and walked towards the door.

Alina brushed the fluttering hair around her ears with her fingers and stared at Luo Gesi's back. Her lips gently raised, and the slightly curved angle brought out a graceful smile. She opened her lips and whispered softly: "Us."

Chapter 4: Rogers: Elina is so useful (k)

The decoration in the club's third-floor minister's office is extremely simple. Apart from the desk, there are only a simple but practical large bookshelf embedded in the left wall, a large and comfortable couch, and a low table in front of the sofa.

After Derek handed the document to Rogers, he continued to deal with daily affairs, while Lufia sank into the sofa early as usual, holding a large book and reading through it.

When Rogers closed the door and returned to his desk, he took a quick glance and realized that what the little princess was reading was not some magical knowledge, but a book covered with a decent book cover. She wanted to pretend to study in front of Elena to take a break.

He did not expose this directly, but held a thick stack of documents on the table and glanced at Alina who was standing in front of the window.

"If the other party has the idea of ​​​​leaving Saint Helte immediately after ascending to the position of the Holy Son, it is indeed possible that he will try his best to convert the credits into practical resources before the night of exorcism.

"But how can you guarantee that the candidate Holy Son is among the first and second graders? And the way of thinking of people close to the Abyss of Disorder may not necessarily follow the thoughts of ordinary people..."

Alina stared at the pile of documents and glanced back at Rogers. Her eyes seemed to have guessed something and was just waiting for confirmation.

Rogers showed a natural and sincere smile to Alina. He stepped behind Alina, put his hands on her shoulders, and half pushed her and pressed her to the desk behind her desk. On the wooden chair, he bowed his head next to his ear and said in a friendly and sincere tone:

“So I asked Delic to bring not only the credit records of the first and second graders, but also the list of seniors.

"It may make you a little tired, but this is the most convenient and time-saving method I can think of, and it can also ensure accuracy."
